I lack creativity, but thought I would give it a shot. Maybe BB, 66, Sub, Rat, SCMM or someone else can come up with better ideas. Just seems we need something going on.
You have been planning for a tumultuous future world. You planted a garden and started to raise livestock. The first few seasons went well. Unfortunately, there is now a drought with record high temperatures and minimal rainfall. You and your family are not starving (yet) but the prospects of having enough food stored to last the winter are slim. You can cut livestock and have more vegetable matter or you can feed the livestock from your gardens and hopefully they (and you) survive the winter and you have spring breading stock. Neither method will guarantee enough food. Everyone is hurting for food and much of the available wildlife has been taken. All nearby citizens and communities are in similar circumstance, but there is currently no significant violence that can not be handled easily. You have a water well but it is low and can not provide enough water to irrigate sufficiently. There is minimal available surface water that must he hauled. If surface water is utilized it would requiring essintially all man power and fuel, which is being rationed. What would you do now and what would you do differnt?
I know kind of dumb and long but all I could come up with.
